Chapter 19

The reason why Liu Qian was able to break out of the name of "God Arm One Knife Liu" is because of his superior arm strength. In the eyes of others, the heavy bull-eared big ring knife danced as fast as the wind in his hand; Second, with his skillful knife skills, the next plate is very stable. In that year, he participated in the martial arts selection, and passed the first round in the heads-up link, and won five people in a row.

Liu Qian danced with the knife in his hand, front and back, left and right, up and down, first covering himself impermeable, and then waiting for the opportunity to attack.

"Poof, poof" twice, and two more wounds appeared on the bloody man opposite, and blood splattered. Liu Qian was secretly shocked in his heart: the other party was completely undefensive, blindly attacking in the face of the sword light. This is an iron heart to break the net and burn the jade!

He took two steps back more carefully, picking up his pace as he wrapped himself in the cyan shadow of the sword.

With a "click", the Great Chu Monarch, who was focused on defense, actually hit the opponent again, and he could even clearly hear the crisp sound of the opponent's body tearing flesh and bones at hand. This Assassin is determined to die, but his martial arts are ordinary, and he should not be my opponent. Perhaps, there is no need for the Praetorian Guard to come, and the widow can take his life lightly!

Liu Qian quickly made a judgment in his heart, decisively gave up the passive defense, and with a flip of his wrist, the bull-eared big ring knife slashed a graceful arc in the air, and suddenly slammed down on the top of the opponent's head with the sound of "whirring" wind.

After a loud bang, the other party did not fall. On the contrary, the big knife in Liu Qian's hand flew out diagonally for some reason, and with a "beep" sound, it was inserted into the roof beam not far away and "buzzed", and it still trembled.

Liu Qian, the unarmed Great Chu Emperor, was completely stunned.

He saw the bloody man on the other side, grinning at his large, dirty mouth exposed from the mask that had been cut by the blade, revealing a row of terrifying white teeth. Through these dazzling white sharp teeth, Liu Qian seemed to see that he had turned into a pile of white bones.

Fooled...... Careless...... Without allowing Liu Qian to think too much, the bloody man opposite raised the knife in his hand without pause and slashed down at his neck.

Hearing the sound of chaotic and hurried footsteps getting closer and closer outside the door, Liu Qian closed his eyes slightly: It's late, it's too late! It's a pity that my Great Chu Empire is about to overthrow the Great Qi and unify the United Nations; It's a pity that the widow is dedicated to the common people of the world, and there are no heirs, and there is no successor to Dachu, and it will fall into chaos......

"Whoosh...... Syllable...... Goo-dong".

With a few strange and piercing sounds in succession, Liu Qian opened his eyes in surprise: he found that he was unscathed, and the bloody man with blue face and fangs in front of him was gone, replaced by a well-proportioned person with a black veil.

In addition to the surprise, Liu Qian couldn't care about the score of the Great Chu Emperor for the time being, and clasped his fists and saluted: "Thank you for the righteous man's life-saving grace, the widow will be rewarded!" ”。

The man turned slowly, and it was difficult to see the change in his facial expression due to the black veil covering his face, and after hearing only a sneer, the masked man spoke.

The voice was crisp and pleasant, like a pearl falling on a jade plate: "Who said I want to save you?" Maybe it's just here to ask for your life! ”。

As he spoke, the other party gently raised his right arm, and his body exuded a dignified aura of slaughter. Liu Qian vaguely saw a long snake circling and curling in her hand.

Liu Qian couldn't help but gasp, and couldn't help but take half a step back, unable to tell whether this person was friend or foe for a while.

With a "hula" sound, the Praetorian Guard sergeants, who hurried with torches and swords in hand, had already crowded to the door.

Liu Qian's thoughts suddenly raced, and his mind became extremely clear. He shouted majestically to the door, "Stand down, all of you, for this righteous man has taken the lead in repelling the Assassin and saved the widow's life." I want to speak to her alone, and those who dare to harass her will be punished immediately for treason! ”。

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but no one dared to disobey the Holy Lord's oracle in person, so they had to gently close the door and quietly retreat.

Liu Qian's calculation in his heart was very clear: in terms of skill, that hideous-looking bloody assassin was not below him at all, and even much higher. And when he closed his eyes, the masked man in front of him could defeat the enemy with one move, and his martial arts were already unattainable.

Regardless of whether they are friends or foes, they must not take risks and use force, but can only stabilize the other party first, and then wait for the opportunity to move. If she intends to take the life of a widow, even if more Praetorian Guards rush in, it will be in vain! On the contrary, it may prompt him to kill the killer.

Moreover, a figure that he had never met before, but who had always haunted him and had trouble sleeping, had already appeared in his mind.

Seeing that he had dismissed the guards, the person on the other side did not rush to make a move, but curiously flashed his long eyelashes and looked him up and down.

After a period of suffocating silence, the murderous aura that suddenly gathered on the masked man's body slowly dissipated, and he said leisurely: "Let me ask you: As the king of a country, why did you buy off the killer of the Western Regions with a lot of money to intercept this girl and the sixth brother who was loyal to you in Chaozhou Mansion? ”。

Liu Qian's thick Adam's apple rolled quickly a few times, and the pair of broom eyebrows with distinct branches that were crumbling together gradually relaxed, and there was a burst of secret joy in his heart: I really didn't guess wrong!

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's a big misunderstanding!" Liu Qian unconsciously took half a step back as he spoke, as if otherwise, he felt that danger was still close at hand.

Liu Qian spread his hands for the first time, bent down and smiled: "If the widow guessed correctly, this should be Miss Ling'er, right?" In the past, whenever I heard the sixth brother mention it in person, I always praised your superb martial arts and intelligent mind. It's a pity that I, the eldest brother, am always busy with official business, and it is a great pity that I haven't been able to see you with my younger brother and sister for a long time. ”

This time it was Chen Ling'er's turn to be slightly stunned, as the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, and the soft whip in her hand couldn't help but slowly let go.

Liu Qian's eyes suddenly squeezed out two lines of tears, and he said emotionally: "I am friends with my sixth brother and eight worships, and we are like brothers and sisters, sharing blessings and woes, and sharing weal and evil. How can there be a heart to do harm? Younger brothers and sisters must not believe the slanderous words of the wicked, fall for the tricks of the villain, and ruin the brotherhood and brotherhood of our brothers! ”。

Chen Ling'er was skeptical, lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then raised her head again and stared at Liu Qian's face with bright eyes and said, "Even if half of what you say is true, the killer of the Western Regions will never lie!" Then I will ask you: You and I have never met, why are you in a hurry to kill me? ”。

Liu Qian's face suddenly turned red, he raised his hand and slapped his broad forehead vigorously, gritted his teeth and stomped a few times, as if he had made a great determination, and then he spoke: "Alas! Now, I don't hide it. If you want to punish you, punish me, I, the eldest brother, am deeply ashamed of you!

It's all because I was confused for a while, and I listened to the villain's slander: Some people say that you are from Yunkong Mountain, and you also participated in the assassination of the leader of the rebel army at the Rebel Alliance Conference. It's all to blame for the eldest brother, I was confused for a while, and I was afraid that you were a spy sent by the court to the sixth brother, and I would harm him at any time! For the sake of the safety of the sixth brother, and for the sake of my Dachu society, I made this decision! …… Now that I think about it, I am ashamed, and it is too late to regret it! ”。

Chen Ling'er lowered her head and thought for a moment, sighed softly, and took off her veil casually. He looked up firmly and said, "That makes sense." Since that bad guy calls you big brother, I won't be embarrassed by you anymore. But I hope you must remember: In this life and this life, Ling'er and I would rather give up my life than hurt Guan Yu in the slightest! I won't be a spy sent by the Great Qi Imperial Court. ”

Liu Qian nodded again and again and said: "The widow understands that you and the sixth brother are a match made in heaven, and the love is stronger than gold." When the sixth brother captures Dadu, I will calm the world, and the eldest brother will personally witness the marriage of the two of you! Tonight, you stepped forward and sacrificed your life to save the widow's life, and you are the first hero of my Dachu! ”。

Chen Ling'er shook her head lightly and said with a faint smile: "You are wrong again." To tell you the truth, since I found out that you bought the killer with a lot of money and wanted to harm this girl, because I was afraid of your brotherhood, I was worried that I would stage a brotherly rebellion again, and the civil strife in Dachu, I have been buried in my heart for this matter, and I didn't go to Guan Yu to tell him!

And this time I sneaked into the palace alone, first, I wanted to ask you in person, and secondly, I really didn't think about whether to spare you or kill you! coincided with the arrival of the assassins, and it was a coincidence that they came to the rescue. ”

When Liu Qian heard this, he was terrified, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

He quietly forced a smile and said: "No matter what, my brother and sister are great for saving their lives, and the widow will remember them in this life!" My younger brother and sister can be so reasonable, regardless of past suspicions, and even more embarrassed to let me, a big brother, please accept my worship, it can be regarded as a big brother to make amends for you. As he spoke, he made a gesture to kneel.

This move was obviously much unexpected by Chen Ling'er, and she hurriedly stretched out her hands to clasp each other. He said hurriedly: "This is unacceptable, as the king of a country, how can you give such a great gift to my little woman!" ”。

Liu Qian took advantage of the situation to regain his footing, and said with a sincere face: "Since my younger brother and sister are magnanimous and don't care about previous suspicions, then I, who is a big brother, have a cheeky face, and I don't know if you can agree to ask my younger brother and sister again?" ”。

Chen Ling'er replied suspiciously: "What do you want?" You might as well tell me about it. ”

Liu Qian rubbed his hands embarrassedly, blushed, and muttered for a long time before he whispered: "I am like brothers and sisters with my sixth brother, like brothers." Now that the matter has passed, and the misunderstanding between each other has been eliminated, I implore my younger brothers and sisters not to tell the sixth brother again, otherwise I will be really shameless to treat my own brother in the future, and I will hurt my brotherhood in vain! ”。

Chen Ling'er lowered her head and blinked her black shiny and long eyelashes for a moment, then bit her lower lip and nodded heavily.

Respectfully sent Chen Ling'er away, and the Great Chu Emperor didn't close his eyes all night. Accompanied by a heavy guard, he first pacified and visited the seriously wounded Praetorian Guards, and ordered the entire city to be placed under martial law to investigate and arrest the fleeing assassins.

As the day approached dawn, he secretly summoned the deputy commander of the palace guards and the general of Pingzhou City in the imperial study.

After staring at the two of them with squinted eyes for a long time, the Great Chu Emperor sighed lightly and said, "At present, the people of Pingzhou City are panicking, and under my nose, only you two are the most trustworthy!" I have a confidential matter to entrust...... If I don't do this, I'm like sitting on pins and needles, and it's hard to sleep and eat. But this matter must be done without leakage, and it must be kept absolutely confidential. If there is a fourth person in the world who knows, the widow will definitely break the two of you into ten thousand pieces, crush the bones and scatter ashes, and exterminate the nine clans! ”。

The two of them were taken aback, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "The ministers swear allegiance to the Holy Lord, and if the Holy Lord has any orders, even if they speak out." We will do our best, and keep our mouths shut, if we break our oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! ”。

Liu Qian stroked his long hair and nodded slightly. Before he could speak, his eyes suddenly flashed, revealing a dignified murderous aura.
